Yes today was the annual Portland Bridge Pedal where thousands of Portland's bicyclists come out of the wood works to get a chance to bike across ALL of Portland's bridges.
A big thanks goes to BikePortland.org for taking these BREATHTAKING, AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL aerial photos of the event today.
Portland's Bridge Pedal is described as Iconic as it boasts 20,000 bicyclists strong. People have reported the event as very peaceful and successful. Words cannot describe these aerial photos, so I will just leave you all to ponder...
All the photos in this post are thanks to Bike Portland. Check out his really cool blog for everything about the Portland Bike Culture.
